Description Stefan de Konink 2011-01-26 18:25:19 UTC
The patch in the URL implement the functionality of binding epmd to a local adres instead of a global address. Guess until there is a new release, this is a good 'security' feature.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Comment 1 Stefan de Konink 2011-01-26 18:47:25 UTC
The epmd script (ideally) should get an -address 127.0.0.1 I guess.
Comment 2 Dirkjan Ochtman (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2012-02-16 14:16:19 UTC
This is obsoleted by the newer releases in the tree.
